Neither am I unlucky nor very lucky. Guess if one live where every owned car has a front license plate, doesn't have to feel odd one out and waste earning demerit points arguing with the law. Have other important things to pay more attention to.
Tho its good to learn about others life and style and exchanging opinions.

My salesman showed me what it would look like, same with the finance man, both told me don't ruin the looks if I could avoid it. They said if I get stopped tell them it came off at the wash and I was waiting for a new one to arrive at the dealer, keep the plate under the seat to show them. My wife doesn't want it on there either, I agree.

Exclamation Re: WTF has anybody mounted the front plate???

I live in south florida no front plates. but most have no rear plate, or insurance or drivers license. A lot of outlaws, allians, space cadets. dont think anyone cares. they don't like it when you shoot out the window thats about it. Anything else is ok.

Thankfully, I live in Georgia, where you get a choice. You can have either the front
plate, the rear plate, or both. It is up to you. Obviously, I didn't choose to put my
plate on the front.

Wow, you mean you could just have a front plate and not a rear plate? I never heard of such a thing!

Those DOT people in Georgia are not dummies; they are as diplomatic and generous with their rules as you would ever want them to be. Man, having a choice like that!
I wonder how many would put their plate on the front and not the rear; If you did, you could fill that big ugly recess in the rear with some Georgian pansies.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who feels this way about the front plate.
I feel much better knowing most of you feel the same.

Cannot stand the front plate look. As long as there is a rear plate whats the diff?! Besides, if some states allow just the rear why not all states. ALSO< it is a great "flat" surface for laser, K, and X bands to bounce off of!!

I'd just decided to removed my front plate and put a chrome screw with cover in the 2 holes that the dealership made when I bought it. I've seen a few cars here without it so what the heck then if I take it off since my XFIREX is only seen on weekends and sunny weather!
